La Morra attractions

La Morra has three things, and they are enough.
The view. The panoramic terrace at the top of the village, at 513 metres, looks over the entire Barolo amphitheatre — the landscape UNESCO inscribed on 22 June 2014 as the Langa of Barolo. There is a second, higher viewpoint from the Torre Campanaria.
The Cantina Comunale. The village's own cellar, pouring across local producers, which is the sensible place to work out which Barolo you actually like before visiting an estate.
The Cappella del Barolo, at Brunate a few minutes outside the village: a vineyard shelter built in 1914, never consecrated, repainted inside and out in 1999 by Sol LeWitt and David Tremlett. It is the most photographed building in the Langhe and genuinely unlike anything else in the region.
Beyond those, the attractions are the cellars — by appointment — and the Sentiero del Barolo, which starts in the village and runs down through the vineyards. Ten minutes away, Barolo has the castle and the wine museum that La Morra does not.
